As I said, I can tell from my personal experience. I used to post to several lists for many years. I mostly refrained from participation due to the shift in policy that was performed at London Wikimania without seeking prior consent from the community. The board declared it no longer needs the community; those critical of the superprotect turn should take a wikibreak. In fact, most of them quit the project altogether. Wikimedia-l became more official a channel than ever. No more debates, mostly a channel for announcements and thank yous from staff and affiliates. Now I tried to take part in it lately and found out why my posting did not appear on the list. Ah. We are already at step two: a rather strict moderation. It's no more critics, only a forum for applause. Been there, seen that. But it all makes perfect sense. Best, Jürgen. _______________________________________________ Wiki-research-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wiki-research-l
